Use the appliance in the working position only at places with no risk of turning over and at a sufficient distance from heat sources (e.g. heater, stove, cooker, oven, grill), flammable objects (e.g. curtains, drapes, etc.), and wet surfaces (e.g. sinks, wash basins, etc.).
There must be water in the electric kettle before putting it into operation. Do not fill the electric kettle with water if it is on the stand.
The electric kettle is intended for heating a maximum of 1,7 l of water. If the water level exceeds the maximum recommended amount, hot water may be splashing out. – Prevent injuries when handling (e.g. by hot water, steam).

INSTRUCTIONS FOR USE

Remove all the packing material and take out the electric kettle with the stand. Remove all possible adhesion foils, stick-on labels, or paper from the appliance. Before the first use, fill the electric kettle with clean water to the maximum level, turn it on and let the water boil. Then pour out the water and repeat the procedure several times (at least five times).
Unwind the necessary length of the power cord B2 from the storage space of stand B. Place the stand on a suitable surface, at the height of about 85 cm, out of reach of children and incapacitated persons (see par. I. SAFETY WARNING) and plug the fork of the power cord to the electric socket. Hold the kettle A on the handle A4. Open the lid A5 by pressing the lock button A6. Fill the kettle with drinking water. The minimum and maximum amount of water are marked on the water gauge A3. Close the lid by snapping. Put the electric kettle on the stand and turn it to the I position by the A1 button.
The function of the electric kettle is signaled with the control light A2. After boiling the appliance switches off automatically. Before reaching the boiling point, you can switch ff the appliance by turning the A1 button to the 0 positions. Always use fresh drinking water for boiling.
ATTENTION

When heating water, the lid must be closed, otherwise, the steam sensor will not be working.
In bigger tilting of the electric kettle backward, particularly when it is filled up to maximum, water can flow out from the electric kettle in the bottom part of the kettle. This does do not affect the safety or other functions and it does not mean any failure of the electric kettle. In the case of tilting the electric kettle with hot water, there is a risk of scalding. Therefore do not tilt the electric kettle.
If the kettle was removed from the stand during boiling, remains in the ON position. This means that if you put it back on the stand, it will immediately continue in heating.

MAINTENANCE

Unplug the appliance from the power supply by taking the fork of the power cord out of the socket! Clean the kettle only when it is cooled down! Do not use rough and aggressive detergents (e.g. sharp objects, scrapers, diluting agents or other solvents)! The casing of the electric kettle is made of top- quality plastic material and the heating bottom is made of top-quality stainless steel, but in common use, impurities from water get stuck on them (water scale), particularly above the heating element. It is not rust or another material defect of the kettle container and the appliance is not subject to a complaint for this reason.
Cleaning the kettle
Pour about 50 g of citric acid to the kettle with the water scale sediment. Fill the kettle to about one-half and mix. After it dissolves, fill the kettle with 3/4 of the maximum amount of water. Place the electric kettle on the stand and turn it on. Before boiling, turn off the kettle, let the solution take effect for about 10 minutes and then pour it out. Clean the kettle thoroughly with clean water. Repeat the whole procedure if the kettle is too soiled. Clean the electric kettle regularly!
Cleaning the sieve (A7)
Take the sieve from the kettle. Clean it from possible sediments in running water using a fine brush. Then put the sieve back in the opposite way.
